Cool It: The Skeptical Environmentalist's Guide to Global Warming
by Bjørn Lomborg
A book that challenges the debate about global warming by offering a fresh perspective based on human needs as well as environmental concerns.
Bjorn Lomborg argues that many of the elaborate and expensive actions now being considered to stop global warming will cost hundreds of billions of dollars, are often based on emotional rather than strictly scientific assumptions, and may very well have little impact on the world's temperature for hundreds of years. Rather than starting with the most radical procedures, Lomborg argues that we should first focus our resources on more immediate concerns, such as fighting malaria and HIV/AIDS and assuring and maintaining a safe, fresh water supply-which can be addressed at a fraction of the cost and save millions of lives within our lifetime. He asks why the debate over climate change has stifled rational dialogue and killed meaningful dissent.
A Skeptic's Guide to Debunking Global Warming Alarmism
"Hot & Cold Media Spin Cycle: A Challenge To Journalists who Cover Global Warming." by Senator James Inhofe (R-Okla.), the outgoing Chairman of Environment & Public Works Committee.
"The color glossy 64 page booklet -- previously was only available in hardcopy to the media and policy makers -- includes speeches, graphs, press releases and scientific articles refuting catastrophe climate fears presented by the media, the United Nations, Hollywood and former Vice President turned-foreign-lobbyist Al Gore.
The book, which features web links to all supporting documentation, also serves as a handbook to identify the major players in media bias when it comes to poor climate science reporting. The guide presents a reporter’s virtual who’s-who’s of embarrassing and one-sided media coverage, with a focus on such reporters as CBS News “60 Minutes” Scott Pelley, ABC News reporter Bill Blakemore, CNN’s Miles O’Brien, and former NBC Newsman Tom Brokaw."

What is Normal? A Critique of Catastrophic Man-Made Global Warming Theory
This documentary by Warren Meyer outlines man-made global warming theory due to greenhouse gasses. It then proceeds to demonstrate, mostly using historical evidence and actual data from the UN climate panel, why man's impact on world temperatures is unlikely to reach catastrophic levels. It concludes by showing the tremendous costs involved in reversing carbon dioxide production, and demonstrates why these costs may well outweigh impacts of man-made warming.
